I think my error begins at #24 the Power calibration error. I've tried upgrading the DVD Shrink and using another disk but those didn't work. I burned about 4 dvds before it then it started acting up. Restarting computer didn't work either. Can someone help please?

Please remove your serial numbers from the top of your log using the edit feature...they begin with 1A21 & 1A22. Invest in some quality media such as Verbatim...
There's a newer firmware for that external burner here, version 2.0d: http://sony.storagesupport.com/dvdrw/downloads/820UFW20D/820UL_20D.zip
Have you tried lowering your burn speed to 4x? just for future consideration you could have asked a mod to move your other thread to this forum, instead of creating two. no biggie though
